Amelia got stunned as she subconsciously wanted to go home and arrive before Patrick. What a strange idea!
Milton didn't mean to question her but she really got stuck. Milton threatened and persuaded her, "You'd better stay here and be treated. Tomorrow evening you have to attend the engagement banquet and you don't want to faint there, isn't it?"
This reminded Amelia to show up decently. She relaxed and leaned back on the chair, taking the porridge from Milton and said, "Yep, you're right. Thank you."
To divert her from boredom, he played a popular movie for her on his phone. While she was eating, he was thinking about who dared to hook up with his beloved girl.
Leaving the hospital, Milton dropped Amelia at the gate of the villa area.
Dropping off the car, Amelia said gratefully to Milton, "Milton, thank you for dropping me here. I've troubled you too much today."
Staring at the villas, Milton asked thoughtfully, "When did you move here?"
Thinking that she had a hidden marriage with Patrick, Amelia had to tell a lie, "Oh, it's my dad's idea... He's worried that it's not safe for me to live in the old apartment."
So Milton did not ask. After bidding farewell, he drove away.
Entering into the house, Amelia changed into a pair of cotton-padded slippers and found no one in the living room.
Amelia thought probably Patrick hadn't come back yet.
Relieved and serving herself a glass of water and wanting to take the medicine, she was pressed to the kitchen table when turning around!
She was so scared that her hands trembled and the water in the glass splashed out. Looking at the man in front of her, who was as fierce as a leopard and would strike her, Amelia was so stunned that she forgot to speak.
